Plot Synopsis

Created by series star Rodrigo Sant'Anna, SMOTHER-IN-LAW is a sitcom that centers on Dona Isadir, who does her best to disrupt the lives of her bumbling son and rival daughter-in-law. When the pandemic starts, Isadir doesn't think twice about renting out her apartment in Cachambi, in the North Zone of Rio de Janeiro, so she can be closer to her family. She decides -- unilaterally and without warning -- to move into the mansion owned by her son Carlos in Barra da Tijuca, much to the dismay of her daughter-in-law, Alice. Her grandchildren, Jonas and Marcia, are caught in the crossfire, while the family's longtime employee, Marinez, has a front-row seat to the fireworks. And we haven't even mentioned the parties and cookouts with old friends from Cachambi, namely Fatima and Cezinha. The entire 10-episode first season of SMOTHER-IN-LAW dropped on Wednesday, April 13, 2022 on Netflix.
